1.5.0 quick fix ?
- FIX images/descriptions weren't loading due to hubblesite updating some things that the app relied on, I've moved the app over to use hubble.stsci.edu for now as a temporary fix. In the long run the app will move over to using the JSON API so as not to run into issues like this again.
